In March 1997, Aminati left the band after the Bravo Supershow in Stuttgart and tried his hand at being a solo artist, albeit with moderate success. His singles Turn me up and I want you back were in the charts, but compared to Bed & Breakfast they were only respectable successes. In 1999 the album I feel at home followed .

At TV total high diving he took fourth place in individual jumping in 2007 and fifth in synchronized diving with Michael Meziani in 2008 . On November 29, 2009, Daniel Aminati attempted a one and a half somersault from the ten meter tower. He immortalized himself in the memory of the German entertainment audience with a "splash on the back" by turning a quarter somersault too much during his jump. Instead of his head he hit the water with his back and legs visibly rudely. Aminati immediately climbed the tower again and made a perfect jump, but it was not counted. Stefan Raab then totally honored him with a medal of bravery on TV .

In December 2008 he took over the patronage for the association Kinder Afrikas , which tries to build schools in Liberia .
